I think the issue with a shitty (relatively speaking) community on EQ PvP servers is that EQ isn't a PvP game.
I'm not talking about that in the sense of "well EQ isn't balanced for PvP so its PvP is no good" ... I'm talking about it in the sense of "EQ attracts a certain kind of player in general, and a disproportionate number of EQ players who gravitate towards an EQ PvP server are messed up little people."
I guarantee there is more per-capita griefing (and general annoyingness of oh, so many people) on any of the PvP EQ servers than there is in any of the MMOs that focused on PvP (Dark Age of Camelot, Shadowbane, Eve, etc).
